The first Saturday in March when the mowers finally come out is a small holiday in Maumelle — the smell of cut grass returning to streets that have been brown since December. Halls Lawn Care makes that first pass count: an even cut across a lawn still waking up, edges reopened along the drive, trimmer work around trees and mailboxes, walks blown clean. From there it runs weekly, straight through a growing season that goes long and hot in central Arkansas. Leaves close the year out, hauled off the turf before they mat down over it. Every stop ends the same way — nothing left on the concrete, and a yard that looks like somebody meant it.
